I still don't really get this building system, but here's my first working robutt

I like it!  I am interested to see how the twin screws work in battle.

The intent with this game is to try to model damage physically.  Instead of simply giving damage points every time a contact point exceeds an impulse threshold like in RA2 (more contact points = more damage per round), I have made a system where fewer contact points = more damage.  This should benefit designs like yours, which try to focus all of the contact on a single point.
Guessing this system also make the weapon spammy bots with a lot of teeth work like IRL, where they are inefficient

Exactly.  🙂

I’m hoping that with the new system we will end up with in-game designs that converge on those that are effective IRL.

I think this is the first RR2 ring spinner: a recreation of my DSL-IRL ring spinner Sour Note. The chassis is a tiny box hidden inside the cylindrical main body, so it's illegal right now, but hopefully component destruction (and some flatter weapon motors!) will be added in the future.

Currently, I'm noticing the way to design is to put all the weight into the weapon and the wedge. With more weight being more damage and down force respectively

Do you feel like it is disproportionate and/or weird to put so much weight into the wedge, or is it okay?

Bite Force RR2.jpg


Had an absolute blast this evening building a Bite Force rep! I have to say, RR2's bot builder is leaps and bounds ahead of RA2 soooo much easier to work with!

Oh my word.  This is incredible.

Would you mind if we put this up on Twitter and Reddit?

Haha thank you, really liking the game so far. The bot builder is surprisingly intricate but still fun to work with. I was worried using so many individual pieces on a bot would break the game but it runs perfectly.

Not at all man, post away!

@tashic was really smart when he designed it.  In order to keep things performant when you add a shape, it strips the shape's rigidbody component and adds the new collider to the existing rigidbody.  This means it is possible to add a lot of intricate detail without bogging down the physics engine.

Do you have any suggestions to make building stuff like this quicker and easier?  I was thinking maybe we could set the custom shape width to something more reasonable like 0.006 meters.

Well... I feel a bit foolish posting these after the amazing Bite Force rep by Arcane, but nonetheless, I've been loving playing this game even at this stage so thought I would contribute these!

 
Hypno Disc.jpg

Hypno Disc - Works just like the real thing! Probably my favourite rep I've made so far!

 
Panic Attack.jpg

Panic Attack - Had to create quite a lot of new shapes for the decals and stuff, but thankfully the game allows for the creation of precise polygons. Cannot wait for the decal painting system to be working!

 
Tornado.jpg

Tornado - The framework was fiddly but fun to do. Again - works just like the real thing!

 
Pussycat.jpg

Pussycat - First rep I made. Gets caught on its butt and jigs back and forth but hopefully once the AI system has been developed that should solve it.

 
Razer.jpg

Razer - Not entirely accurate but you can tell what its meant to be... Doesn't crush but can catch bots and push them around nicely and believably.

 
Storm 2.jpg

Storm 2 - Currently working as a full body hammer. That said - still effective!

 
Stinger.jpg

Stinger - I think it looks great but doesn't operate that well at the moment... could do with a 'rubber' material for the tyres? Has the same problem as Pussycat when it comes to driving aswell.

 
Dominator 2.jpg

Dominator 2 - The axe does work but naturally the Ai doesn't know when to fire it yet.

 
Gabriel.jpg

Gabriel - (See Stinger)

Oh! And I had a bit of fun with my own bot:
 
Dynamo.jpg

Dynamo - Small but a powerhouse.

I have a few ideas for how to make the game even more effective but I'll post them on the main thread since this is for currently posting bots atm!
But yeah basically loving the game and having loads of fun with it!
Damn I should probably put something fancy in this bit huh?
